PortableApps.com Platform

Could we have download speed throttling built into the platform updater, currently it uses all available bandwidth impacting all users on the LAN.

The default should be unlimited, but the platform should remember the last setting

For an example see the Firefox Downthemall plugin

Thanks

I have now received the Carbide stick.

However I would like to stop the antivirus (rather useless in this configuration) to be loaded on each start of the platform.
HW?

Hi,

My university provides us with a very large (unlimited?) network drive to store our data. When running the PA platform from this drive, I get an 'invalid float operation' error. I know this error is listed as an unconfirmed bug. Therefore I wanted to confirm it as this bug seems to have been around for a long time.

Cheers.

I have installed Platform on my USB stick, now the Stick has as Volumenem PortableApps... but i want my own Volumedrivename,
How can I change this.

Recently the Updater hangs (Not Responding) after downloading during the installing phase. What's up with this?

See example: http://youtu.be/HD5ocS60OP8

trying to update through the platform, the latest Google Chrome Beta gets a 404 error. It seems to be after 28.0.1500.51 & it should be .52, based on the direct download link from the Chrome Portable app page. Please fix - thanks!

How can I make that the Suite starts up when I plug in the usb-stick?

I'm surprised this hasn't been brought up before. I was updating apps. I knew it would take awhile so I started the update of twelve or so apps from the update option in the Portable Apps Platform menu.

Have you ever used Ninite? You check a dozen apps and everything installs in the background and a while later it tells you it's done? Portable Apps doesn't work like that. Every single program interrogates you. Where do you want to install? Do you agree to the terms? What is your dog's maiden name?

There is a "fork" of the portable apps platform called geek.menu (on sourceforge). I used it for some time now, but it is not so actively developted like here.

but

It has some features really nice to have.

1. simple eject command (if I want a automatic incremental backup of the dokuments e.g.)
2. integration of TrueCrypt (with seperate behavior on "unknown" computers)
- automount TC volume
- able to show owner info
- run different menus

other features are already integrated but differently.
